Many of us have worked through double-shift jobs, chose for double course load for their graduation, have run biathlons and triathlons and ate double the food then they can just because they were on a bet. Yet, none of this can be compared to the challenges of handling twins or multiples at once. First of all, it is not our choice to have twins or multiples. It was destined for us (though many parents would not like to change the fact). When we know that we are going to parent more than one child, we are joyous and fearful at the same time. We are actually afraid whether we will be able to handle it all.
Secondly, in all the case we could have stopped whenever we liked. We could leave one job, choose to drop a subject, stop running or not eating or drinking more because we thought ‘enough was enough’. However, when you are parenting twins or multiples, you are not allowed to just stop parenting or just leave a child or neglect one of the children. We have to go on. There is a commitment and duty towards our children that we have to fulfill, no matter what happens to us. There are challenges and joys on our ways. There are strategies, tips and advice to ease up on motherhood with double or multiples of intensity that comes with a child. In this section, we are going to discuss them for you to read and follow.
